Theme: Fougère Friday - I'm rocking the Armonía set today with Brut Prestige. All of them are marketed as fougére scents. Armonía is a tobacco fougère. It means harmony in Spanish and fougère means fern in French. I'm not sure that tobacco plants and ferns harmonize naturally but @theislandvida did her magic and made an awesome scent in a fantastic base.

Daily Challenge: Stacking Day - FTFI, "make your tower of shave gear as tall as you possibly can." Done. It was tricky to get the right angle. By the power of 31mm boar bristles, my stainless steel Superslant and the balm were safe and secure even at this altitude.
